Hello :) I am a mother of two teenage daughters. I have a degree in Elementary Education/Child Development and over 10 years experience as both a Preschool Teacher and Nanny/Caregiver. I have worked with children of all ages and am passionate about fostering each child’s interests and development through thoughtful and loving care. I also enjoy supporting families with additional needs so am happy to help with pets, light housekeeping, organization, errands, etc. In addition, I am currently a Care Driver for HopSkipDrive (a ride-share service for school children) so am qualified and comfortable with driving your children to/from activities. I am patient, kind, respectful, reliable and fun! I consider it a privilege to be welcomed into your family and look forward to meeting you all!
“Our toddler warmed up to Holly faster than I expected and was excited to play and read with her the entire time. Holly also had excellent communication about the booking and was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!”
Hello, my name is Alexis but most people call me Alex and I have had over 15 years of experience taking care of animals, children, and a couple seniors to support myself through college. I’ve taken care of one main household for over 13 years and I love their children and animals as if they are my own. At client’s request I am happy to do light housecleaning, cooking, school pick up or drop off, administer medications, and take care of their pets needs as well. I thrive on taking care of the community in a multitude of ways over the years, but taking care of children and animals brings me the most joy.

Hi! You can call me Jackie! 🥰 welcome to my profile! I have over 8 years of experience working with kids, including two years caring for a very special boy with special needs. My responsibilities included driving, helping with household tasks, and providing daily support with patience, much love, and responsibility. I also have a great love for animals - especially puppies! ♥️ Over the years, I’ve taken specialized training and courses to better support children with developmental and behavioral needs. I’m also CPR certified, fully vaccinated, and always prioritize safety and health in everything I do. I’m an excellent and confident driver, with over 10 years of experience. I have many excellent references from families available upon request.
“Jackie worked for my family as an afternoon/evening nanny a few years ago, and she was fantastic! A safe driver, and always willing to pitch in and lend a hand with anything that's needed. My four kids loved her -- she is very loving, warm and creative. Any kid would be lucky to get a chance to hang out with Jackie! :)”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."
Michelle R., mom of two
"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
Milena L., mom of two
"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
Heather B., mom of two
